They must've forgotten to turn off all their diesel cars, which according to TVF experts are the devil incarnate and 110% responsible for all pollution in the universe. The farmer saints burning their fields have nothing to do with it, absolute nada. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ventenio Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 It's amazing how a relatively quiet street can turn into a speedway in just a few days. Never ending supply of traffic, new faces, and of course many women who are prettier than the average who stays here. They are driving all night from Bangkok and all night back, and we wonder why everyone is crashing. This country might need more trains, because nothing is stopping someone in BKK going to see their parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
